Understanding How to Generate Additional Columns Based on Dates Using SQL Server
Understanding the Problem and Solution In this article, we will delve into the world of date manipulation in SQL Server. Specifically, we’ll explore how to generate an additional column named Month based on the DateModified column, creating a new record for each month. We are given a table Your_Table with columns ID, DateModified, and another table MonthValue_AccordingTo_MonthTextTable containing information about months. The goal is to create a new record in the first table, with an additional Month column, where this value corresponds to the month of each date.
